1. 11. Advances in vortical flow prediction methods for design of delta-winged aircraft

   Författare :Simone Crippa; Arthur Rizzi; James Luckring; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; delta wing; slender wing; aircraft; vortex; VFE-2; CAWAPI; HISAC; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis covers the field of vortex-flow dominated external aerodynamics. As part of the contribution to the AVT-113 task group it was possible to prove the feasibility of high Reynolds number CFD computations to resolve and thus better understand the peculiar dual vortex system encountered on the VFE-2 blunt leading edge delta wing at low to moderate incidences.

3. 12. Investigation of Head Injuries in Car-to-Child Pedestrian Accidents

   Författare :Jianfeng Yao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; injury mechanisms; head injury; child pedestrian; accident;

   Sammanfattning : Head injury is the most common injury type in child pedestrian accidents andcould lead to lifelong disability or even death. To protect child pedestrianfrom head injury, it is important to understand the head injury mechanismsand tolerance levels. LÄS MER

4. 13. The importance of personality, IQ and learning approaches : predicting academic performance

   Författare :Pia Rosander; Martin Bäckström; Åge Diseth; Högskolan Kristianstad; []
   Nyckelord :SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; personality; IQ; learning approaches; academic performance; high school;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the present doctoral thesis was to examine to what extent personality traits and approaches to learning contribute to academic performance in upper secondary school (high school), after controlling for the well-known fact that general intelligence accounts for a large part of the variance. The general proposition of the thesis is that personality traits are stable dispositions and therefore predispose an individual to behave or act in a specific manner (Costa & McCrae, 1976). LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the present doctoral thesis was to examine to what extent personality traits and approaches to learning contribute to academic performance in upper secondary school (high school), after controlling for the well-known fact that general intelligence accounts for a large part of the variance. The general proposition of the thesis is that personality traits are stable dispositons and therefore predispose an individual to behave or act in a specific manner (Costa & McCrae, 1976). LÄS MER
